checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and
you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words
and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then
aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to
have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are
preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per
inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing
are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages
than to try to compress it into fewer pages. Assignment on Public health
leadershipLikewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased
leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other

2. such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of
trees, and will not fool your professor.The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced
with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard
copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay,
it will also be hard to follow your argument.ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
CLASSDiscussion Questions (DQ)Initial responses to the DQ should address all components
of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250
words.Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion,
engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly
source.One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and
responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be
at least 150 words. Assignment on Public health leadershipI encourage you to incorporate
the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.Weekly ParticipationYour
initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded
separately.In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me)
on three separate days, for a total of three replies.Participation posts do not require a
scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).Part of your weekly
participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the
comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is
due during the week.APA Format and Writing QualityFamiliarize yourself with APA format
and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit
the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for
APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of
APA format or absence of APA format (if required).Cite all sources of information! When in
doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.I highly recommend using the
APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.Use of Direct QuotesI discourage overutilization of
direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.As
Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret
information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s
words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the
content.It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.LopesWrite PolicyFor
assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received
your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.Once
you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical,
punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to
review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.Review your similarities. Did you
forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of
someone else’s thoughts more than your own?Visit the Writing Center in the Student
Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and
SI score.Late PolicyThe university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY
LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.Please communicate with me if you anticipate
having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may
be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.If you do not

effect.I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked
out an extension.As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any
assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for
grading.CommunicationCommunication is so very important. There are multiple ways to
communicate with me:Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course
content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your
peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.Individual Forum: This is a private
forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24
hours.
